World Sight Day with Adnexal nurse Nicola Dunlop web chat

In support of World Sight Day, Moorfields will be hosting a web chat with Adnexal nurse Nicola Dunlop. Have your questions ready for Nicola who specialises in watering of the eye problems, thyroid eye disease, or those who experience loss of an eye.

In support of World Cancer Day we are hosting a web chat with Victoria Cohen, consultant ophthalmic surgeon who specialises in ocular oncology.

Ocular melanoma is the most common type of eye tumour and is a very rare form of cancer affecting between five and seven people in every million each year.

Staff and the general public are invited to ask Victoria questions about the condition. You can do this by accessing a link available here and submitting your questions when the web chat goes live on 2 February between 12.30pm-1.30pm.

World Cancer Day is a global initiative taking place every year on 4 February with the aim to unite the world in the fight against cancer.

Blepharospasm Day Web Chat will give you the chance to ask your questions to Daniel Ezra about Blepharospasm. This is a condition which is characterised by any abnormal contraction or twitch of the eyelid.

For those who want to find out more about eye conditions, keeping your eyes healthy (including what general eye health tips you can follow), then Moorfields general ophthalmology consultant, Seema Verma, will be answering questions via a web chat on Wednesday September 23 at 3.30pm.

Anyone can send in their questions about general eye conditions or eye injuries.

With the summer holiday season upon us, it’s important to take care of your eyes as well as your skin when holidaying or travelling in hot climates or sunbathing here at home in the UK. This week you can ask Moorfields consultant eye surgeon Mr Raja Das-Bhaumik about protecting your eyes when out and about in the hot sun.

Mr Raja Das-Bhaumik is a consultant ophthalmologist and oculoplastic surgeon. As well as his specialist areas which include eyelid and facial surgery, eyelid tumour surgery and reconstruction, he treats all general ophthalmic and eyelid conditions including blepharitis, cosmetics surgery, dry eye, floaters, watering eye, emergency ophthalmology and trauma.
